POWERS OF 10 is an Charles Eames short on the subject of scale. It starts off on earth and pulls back to reveal the universe.

I am also interested in other Eames shorts:

POWERS OF TEN (1977)TOCCATA FOR TOY TRAINSA COMMUNICATIONS PRIMER (1953)COMICS OF THE FIFTIES (1960)DEAD OF THE FIFTIES (1960)VIEW FROM THE PEOPLE WALL (1966)ALPHA (1972)KALEIDOSCOPE JAZZ CHAIR (1960)SX-70 (1972)PARADE (HERE THEY COME DOWN OUR STREET) (1952)GOODS (1981)DESIGN Q & A (1972)SOMETHING ABOUT PHOTOGRAPHY (1976)DE GAULLE SKETCH (1958)ATLAS: A SKETCH OF THE RISE & FALL OF THE ROMAN EMPIRE (1976)TOPS (1969)THE EXPANDING AIRPORT (1958)IBM MATHEMATICA PEEP SHOWS (1961)GLIMPSES OF THE USA (19590A COMPUTER GLOSSARY (OR COMING TO TERMS WITH THE DATA PROCESSING MACHINE)FIBREGLASS CHAIRS: SOMETHING OF HOW THEY GET THE WAY THEY ARE (1970)

I've got 'A Computer Glossary' [400 ft] - mounted (you should pardon the expression!) on a nice red reel with Britannica etc on it (and only rewinds back on to itself). I bought it 'cos I'm a retired computer wallah and it is one of several data processing documentaries I have. I guess I'd sell it if the offer was right. You know - make me an offer (excluding p&p) and I'll either say yes or laugh!!Cheers, David E

Yeah, I've always been on the lookout for POWERS. A super amazing film. A fair number from Den's list were issued for the educational market. I've had a few copies of TOCATTA pass through my hands, and it would be my second favorite Eames film. Stunning cinematography. I've also got copies of TOPS, PARADE, ATLAS, and COMPUTER GLOSSARY. I'd really love to add the SX-70 film...I saw that screened behind the scenes at the George Eastman House....
